Download MapMan

IF you use X4 annotations please make sure to only use these with pathways staring with the label X4.

You can keep using your installed MapMan version, if you have trouble updating please contact us either on the forum here or by using mapmanserver--googlemail.comor personally at usadel--bio1.rwth-aachen.de and m.bolger--fz-juelich.de (replace -- by @).

All Mapping Files are now distributed under a CC license (simply cite us) and are available from our github account as well.

We have added any land plant and many algae genome support via our Mercator service. If you have a non model species simple visit https://plabipd.de/portal/mercator4 and submit a FASTA file with all protein sequences. You will get a MapMan X4 compliant annotation usually within 30 mins. From within MapMan make sure to download the mapping files starting with X4. This is a silent update ony pertaining to the ontology and maps and was the result of several man years of work. It represents a complete overhaul of the ontology and has resulted in an ontology with about twice as many terms as before offereing a much advanced resolution.

Version 1.8.1 (23.06.2006)

drag, drop and copy for mappings and pathways

multiple colour schemes

pathway icon preview

enhanced user interfaces

enhanced data export features

Version 1.8.0 (30.01.2006)

Data types can now be represented by different graphical symbols. The "symbols" graphical representation is now default for all which used to be points. If data should be displayed as points only the mode can be overriden from on pathway or on single bin level by switching to the original points interface.

Added map after adding or editing annotation areas on the pathway to ensure that previously unknown bins data is mapped.

Added last data provider active to allow for new pathways to show the last active data.

Version 1.7.0 (19.12.2005)

statistic exportable

multiple testing corrections available

images can now be exported with given resolution

performance enhancements (mappings are now stored in a local database)

various bugfixes

Version 1.6.3 (23.09.2005)

new pathways and mappings

performance enhancements (still ongoing effort)

various bugfixes

Version 1.6.0 (08.06.2005)

Custom multi format data loading including multi experiment files

Color legend

Wilcoxon rank sum to rank the bins according to their changes

Diverse bugfixes

Version 1.4.3 (01.09.2004)

New Feature: with search gene function

Version 1.4.2 (02.06.2004)

Integration of MapManStore (up to date Pathways and Mappings can be loaded from remote MapManStore server).

Now supports reading of mapping and data files as tab delimited text files.

Enhanced Installation routines now checks if software has been updated
